Seed-Starting Helpers

After making lots of fresh-squeezed juice, I reuse my citrus halves as pots for seedlings.   Just scoop out all of the remaining pulp and let the halves dry for a few days in a dark dry spot.  A few days later, just fill them with potting mix and plant with fast growing seeds like sweet peas.  No need to poke holes in the bottom of the rinds since the dry skin of the peel absorbs the moisture.  I like to place my potted rinds in cupcake pans.
